Dancing sculptures are large three-dimensional structures that are supported by the body, communicate human energy, and amplify its movements. Projects in this area study, design, and build dancing sculptures, and employ computer interaction, digital fabrication, design, and simulation technologies to imagine new futures. Projects also theorize on new understandings of the relationship between the body, architecture, and society. Related areas include:
